Job 27:18
_ _ (Job 8:14; Job 4:19). The transition is natural from “raiment” (Job 27:16) to the “house” of the “moth” in it, and of it, when in its larva state. The moth worm’s house is broken whenever the “raiment” is shaken out, so frail is it.
_ _ booth — a bough-formed hut which the guard of a vineyard raises for temporary shelter (Isaiah 1:8). |
Job 27:18
A moth — Which settleth itself in a garment, but is quickly and unexpectedly dispossessed of its dwelling, and crushed to death. A booth — Which the keeper of a garden or vineyard suddenly rears up in fruit — time, and as quickly pulls down again. |
Job 27:18
He buildeth his house as a (m) moth, and as a booth [that] the keeper maketh.
(m) Which breeds in another man's possessions or garment, but is soon shaken out. |

Isaiah 51:8 For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.
|
- as a booth:

Isaiah 38:12 Mine age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd's tent: I have cut off like a weaver my life: he will cut me off with pining sickness: from day [even] to night wilt thou make an end of me.
Lamentations 2:6 And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as [if it were of] a garden: he hath destroyed his places of the assembly: the LORD hath caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.
